A brief summary of how user engagement is tracked on Tumblr, for the newcomer:
When you like or reblog a post, that counts as user engagement for the person you liked or reblogged from, and shows up in their notifications.
If the person you liked or reblogged a post from wasn’t the original poster (i.e., you’re liking or reblogging a reblog), it also counts as user engagement for the original poster, and shows up in their notifications as well.
This means that user engagement from your likes and reblogs can potential accrue to two different people, the original poster and the person you liked or reblogged from.
Consequently, you cannot “steal” user engagement from someone by reblogging their post.
This is one of the very few areas where Tumblr is actually functions more reasonably than other social media platforms.
Note that this is only true if you use Tumblr’s built-in reblogging function. If you save someone else’s content to your local device and append it to a new post, you effectively become the original poster from that point on.
This means that on Tumblr, “reblogging” and “reposting” are two different things; if you see someone complaining about “reposting”, this is not the same as reblogging.
Commenting when reblogging does not affect any of this – unlike, say, Twitter, where quote-retweeting causes user engagement to accrue to the quote-retweet and not to the original tweet – and you can and should do so freely.
However, every Tumblr user can see who exactly you reblogged a post from, which functions as a soft disincentive against making inane comments; if you make a dumb comment on a reblog, people who see your reblog may “back up” one step in the reblog chain to reblog a version of the post without your comment.
Nobody understands tags, and there’s a fair amount of evidence that how tags work changes periodically and without warning.
Tags are a divine mystery.
Lesbian Pride
Characters: “Thomasia [Last name not decided | SHOA] & Aderyn [Last name not decided | SHOA]”
[Image Description: A woman named Aderyn is carrying her girlfriend, Thomasia, in her arms. Aderyn has a lighter skin tone with wavy hair that is shaved on the side, she is looking lovingly at her girlfriend. There is a note next to her to remind the creator (myself) that she is meant to be of German descent.
Thomasia is a woman who has a condition that causes Hyperpigmentation causing patches of skin to be darker than the surrounding skin. Her skin is darker in comparison with Aderyn’s. Thomasia doesn’t have the majority of her right arm (has only part of the upper arm, just below the shoulder. Thomasia has her left arm wrapped around Aderyn. There is a note next to Thomasia to note that she has the condition Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).]
[Text in Image: Thomasia x Aderyn; (under Thomasia) twin (the meaning of the name and a note that Thomasia has a twin); (under Thomasia and twin) has RA (short for Rheumatoid Arthritis); (under Aderyn) German; June 2nd (second); Lesbian Pride]
These two are nicknamed the ‘Cool Aunts’ of the class as while, neither of them are responsible for the class, they still are some form parent figures for the rest. Thomasia’s ability is the ability to teleport to places she has been, which is useful when trying find where a group of classmates are hiding around campus. Adelyn is one of the people you should call if you broke something but don’t want the teachers to know, with her ability to create a mimic of any object (minus organic material such as food or real animals) using a substance she can create and mold at will, she can easily fix it and if it is beyond repair, she can dig a hole to bury it.

Because of speed and convenience. If it of any comfort, I use a kettle instead of microwave.
I just want every non-american who gets mad about microwaving hot water for tea to know that my family owns a kettle and I use the microwave anyway. I will not change and I want you to die mad about it.
thank god i’m hot enough to get away with how annoying i am
